Chapter two

Outside at the celebration Will was the only crew member awake and sober. He was searching the streets and taverns for Jack. As he had been for the past hour and a half. Finally he spotted a tri-corn hat. He reached out and grabbed the shoulder.

"There you are Ja-" He stopped short; it wasn't Jack's shoulder he had his hand on, it was a young girl. "Oh pardon me miss, I thought you were someone else."

"Oh, that's all right." The girl said. There was a loud crash behind them as the window from the nearest bar shattered as Jack went flying threw it.

"And you were saying I would get into a fight?" The girl demanded of Jack. Will just stared at the two, unsure of what was going on. Jack staggered to his feet, as a giant stepped through the shattered window.

"Oh, Will there you are. Let me introduce you to the newest member of our crew." Jack said wobbling unsteadily. Will stared at the giant.

"But I thought he just threw you out the window." He said now starting to back away as the man lumbered towards them. Mari stepped in front of the man.

"Excuse me, sir? I was just wondering, is your massive size possibly compensating for something you might lack? Like a brain?" The man and Will started at her. She has a death wish! Will thought. The man seemed intent on giving her that wish. He reached out towards her throat. Faster than blinking she kneed the man in the groin area and then punched him in the face to keep him from falling on her. Will blinked, not quite believing what he had just seen. The girl turned to him and he backed away as she raised her hand.

"The name's Marieah, but you can call me Mari." She said. Will realized she was going to shake his hand. He felt stupid for a moment then shook her hand politely. Will felt a thump on his back as Jack thumped him in a friendly manner.

"Yep, this is our new crew member, but only if she pulls her weight, savvy?" Jack said.

"Yeah I know, we already had this discussion didn't we?" Mari said

"Yes, I'm just making my point, luv." Jack said and Mari shrugged as they headed back to the ship, and the unconscious crew. They were in the port area when Mari stopped short, and Will bumped into her.

"Sorry." she said hurriedly and then darted off somewhere.

"Hey!" Jack called after her, "where are you going?"

"I forgot someone! I'll be right back!" Mari called over her shoulder, pushing through people.

"We cast off in an hour! We aren't waiting for you! Be here or get left behind!" He shouted. Mari waved back to show she heard.

"That girl is going to be trouble isn't she?" Jack said, more to himself than Will.

"Why are you bringing her aboard anyway? I thought you didn't like women aboard." Will said as they boarded the ship.

"That is Gibbs who finds it bad luck; I just find it pointless unless I have seen what they can do. That girl has thrown a 230 pound man through a wall. I think she might actually be able to hold her own, savvy?" Jack said, remembering the fateful event that had happened only about to hours ago.

"Anyway, where's the rest of my crew?"

Sorry it's soo short but the next one will be longer i promise. Anyway something for you to ponder... Who is Mari going back for?

Please review.
